Last month, for the first time ever, I shot a video of myself playing a song by one of my favourite composers, Pino Forastiere (most of the time, I'm hidden behind my computer while at work).
The song I chose for this landmark venture is aptly titled 'November.' I love this piece first and foremost for its emotional intensity. It is also technically challenging because there are a lot of subtleties and nuances, and is especially demanding for the right hand. My performance is far from perfect - I was nervous playing in front of a camera and there are a couple of mistakes here and there - but given that this is my first attempt, I feel that this particular take adequately captures the mood and pace of this brilliant composition. I welcome all comments and feedback to help me improve further. Thank you for listening!
